Gillette School First Grade Field Trip
Long Hill Township Public Schools
First graders at Gillette School recently went on a field trip to the Long Hill Library and Town Hall. First, students got the opportunity to sit in the courtroom to hear from the Township Administrator, the Recreation Director, and a Fire Official. Next, Kelly Roshto led students on a tour of Town Hall and showed students the Township Quilt. Then they walked over to the library where they rotated between three stations. Diane Stanley, the Long Hill Historical Society Archivist, demonstrated for students how we use old photos, maps, and objects to remember the past. Maryjane Weiss taught students more about the history of Gillette School, and even showed them old photographs and report cards. Albie Ashbrook coordinated a scavenger hunt in honor of Women’s History Month. First graders really enjoyed learning about Long Hill’s history!
